Appearances

Core series

Generation I and remakes

The player standing outside of the S.S. Anne in Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version

Before the player can embark on the S.S. Anne, they have to first obtain an S.S. Ticket by helping out Bill. The S.S. Anne contains many Pokémon Trainers, many of which are Gentlemen and Sailors. The player also encounters their rival, Blue, whom they must defeat in battle before they can access the captain's room. Upon doing so, the player has to enter the captain's room, where they discover the captain to be seasick. The player can give the captain a back rub to make him feel better. As a reward, the player is given HM01 (Cut) from the captain. When the player exits the S.S. Anne afterward, the ship sets sail and can never be re-entered.

The S.S. Anne has been identified as a luxury ferry boat throughout the series. However, the S.S. Anne aesthetically resembles a luxury ocean liner despite consisting only of three floors, a lot fewer than the number needed to classify the S.S. Anne as an ocean liner. In Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version, the S.S. Anne is designed similarly as in the Generation I games, besides only slight exterior changes. There is a truck near where the S.S. Anne, although it lacks much of a purpose.

In the Generation I games and Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version, it is possible to prevent the S.S. Anne from leaving the port if the player is traded a Pokémon that knows Cut, making it unnecessary to talk to the captain. The S.S. Anne can also be prevented from setting sail by losing a battle there after talking to the captain, since this causes the player to show up at the nearest Pokémon Center, and the cutscene of the ship setting sail is not shown.

In Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version only, a lady in a room on the first floor can restore the player's party to full health. Additionally, Blue is longer on the S.S. Anne when the player accesses Lavender Town, so it is possible to avoid the battle with him altogether.

In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!, Trace is the rival, so he is encountered instead of Blue. The captain also rewards the Secret Technique Chop Down instead of HM01. Additionally, when the player disembarks the S.S. Anne, they encounter Mina, who missed the S.S. Anne on her way back to Alola. As Mina waits for the S.S. Anne to return, the player can battle her daily, and by winning, they earn a Bottle Cap.

Generation III and remakes

The S.S. Anne model in the second floor of the Oceanic Museum in Pokémon Emerald Version

In Pokémon Ruby Version and Pokémon Sapphire Version, Pokémon Emerald Version, and the remake Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, a small model of the S.S. Anne is displayed on the second floor of the Oceanic Museum. When viewed, the text reads, "The S.S. Anne" "A replica of the luxury liner that circles the globe."

Pokémon Diamond Version and Pokémon Pearl Version / Pokémon Platinum Version

In Pokémon Diamond Version and Pokémon Pearl Version and Pokémon Platinum Version, it is mentioned that Professor Rowan and Dawn had returned from a trip to Kanto. Previously, in Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version, there is actually a Lass named Dawn on the S.S. Anne, who travels with an old man.

Anime

In the anime, the S.S. Anne has its own design that greatly contrasted from the core series. The "ferry" is correctly identified as a "luxury cruise liner," both in description and design.

Pokémon the Series

File:TB015 10.jpg

Ash, Brock, and Misty looking at the S.S. Anne in "Battle Aboard the St. Anne"

St. Anne, as it is called in the anime, is the main setting of "Battle Aboard the St. Anne" and "Pokémon Shipwreck", where its role is completely different than in the core series. The St. Anne has not appeared in any other episode of Pokémon the Series ever since.

Ash, Brock, and Misty were each given a free ticket by two schoolgirls, who were actually Jessie and James in disguise. The St. Anne is used as a trap by Team Rocket leader Giovanni to have his Grunts steal Pokémon from other Trainers. On the St. Anne, Ash, Brock, and Misty witness a gentleman using his Raticate to defeat a young Trainer's Starmie. Ash takes up the offer to battle the Gentleman next, using his Butterfree. After enjoying a meal on the St. Anne, Ash agrees to the Gentleman's idea of trading his Butterfree for the Raticate. Meanwhile, James is scammed by a Magikarp Salesman into purchasing a Magikarp within a gold-painted Poké Ball, but he is forced by Jessie and Meowth (who are furious that James fell for the salesman's trick) to return it, especially since some of Jessie's money was used to purchase it.

The Team Rocket trio and some grunts activate their trap by using a vacuum to steal the other trainers' Poké Balls. Ash retaliated by having his Pikachu electrocute one of the Team Rocket Grunts. Following this, the other trainers begin to help fight back against Team Rocket. They start by having a group of Pikachu, Ash's Pikachu included, deal damage to some of the grunts with Thunderbolt. Ash's Charmander, along with other Charmander, attack another group of grunts, blasting a hole in the side of the ship. Brock sent out his Geodude, and it and the other Geodude attack the grunts by forming a fast spinning circle. Ash's Bulbasaur and the other Bulbasaur attack the grunts with Vine Whip. When Ash tries to send out his Butterfree to join the fight with the other Butterfree, he forgets that he traded it and begins to regret trading Butterfree away in the first place. Getting his head back into the battle, Ash's Pidgeotto is ordered to use Gust along with other Pidgeotto, sending most of the Grunts into a tornado that bursts out from the top of the ship. The battle concludes with Ash's Pikachu joining the other Pikachus to use Thunderbolt again, causing the Team Rocket Grunts to go flying off of the ship.

Later, when the S.S. Anne is hit by a rough storm, everyone is evacuated since the St. Anne starts flooding with water. Ash and James stay on board, dedicated to retrieving their Butterfree and Magikarp after dropping them, respectively. Misty and Brock wait on the St. Anne, waiting for Ash; likewise, Jessie and Meowth are waiting for James. By the time Ash and James got their Pokémon back, the St. Anne flips over and sinks with only Ash, Misty, Brock, and the Team Rocket trio on board. All of them were believed to be dead by the public.

The only characters on the St. Anne in "Pokémon Shipwreck", with the Team Rocket trio having just been discovered by Misty's Goldeen

It is revealed that both groups survived. However, the St. Anne is on a tall rock over a large hole, with air inside to keep it balanced. At one point, after the characters regain consciousness, Misty's Goldeen saves the Team Rocket trio drowning after they open a hole in the St. Anne to escape, even though it only causes the St. Anne to flood. The situation worsens when the St. Anne tilts from the characters engaging in a Pokémon battle. The characters unsuccessfully attempt to balance out the St. Anne by having their Pokémon move to the opposite side, only for the St. Anne to tilt even more. Misty convinces the group to recall their Pokémon to prevent the St. Anne from falling and cooperate to escape. The others reluctantly agree and began their climb to the bottom of the St. Anne. To reach a passageway that leads to the engine room, Brock has his Onix form a makeshift staircase, since the original one is unreachable as a result of the ship being flipped over. The group enters a dark corridor, where Ash uses his Charmander as a light source. Finally, Ash has his Bulbasaur use Vine Whip to form a makeshift bridge to cross over a large fire pit. Upon reaching the engine room, they escaped by cutting a hole in the hull with the help of Ash's Charmander and used their Water-type Pokémon to swim to the surface. Team Rocket had Magikarp as their only Water-type Pokémon, but the Magikarp cannot help since it can only use Splash and can't swim. Nevertheless, the characters narrowly survive and manage to escape before the St. Anne plunges into the hole.

Pokémon Origins

In Pokémon Origins, the S.S. Anne appears only in "File 2: Cubone". It does not have a major role, but there is one instance in which Red is given HM01 (Cut) by the ship's captain after curing his seasickness, directly reflecting an event in the Generation I games and their remakes.

Manga

Pokémon Adventures

In the Red, Green & Blue Chapter, the S.S. Anne is used by Lt. Surge for a scheme that involves stealing others' Pokémon, similarly to Team Rocket in Pokémon the Series, although the scheme is done differently. The S.S. Anne is featured in the chapters RGB010: Danger: High Voltorb and RGB011: Buzz Off, Electabuzz!.

Red is asked by the Pokémon fan club chairman to board the S.S. Anne and search for any Pokémon that had been stolen. Red learns that Lt. Surge is behind the scheme, and he is soon confronted by several of Lt. Surge's Magnemites, Voltorbs, and Electrodes.

After revealing his motives to Lt. Surge, Red is attacked by Lt. Surge's Pokémon. At one point, Red was knocked off of the S.S. Anne and nearly drowned, but he was saved by Poli, who also evolved from a Poliwhirl into a Poliwrath. Red manages to rescue the stolen Pokémon, but Lt. Surge gets away.

Pocket Monsters Zensho

The S.S. Anne appears in the fourth chapter. The role of the S.S. Anne starts off being consistent with the Generation I games, since Red boards the S.S. Anne after receiving a ticket from Bill and soon battles his rival, Blue, but the difference begins when Red meets the captain, who asks him to find Lt. Surge, his sergeant in Vermilion City.

Spinoffs

Pokémon: Magikarp Jump

Pokémon: Magikarp Jump sprite

The S.S. Anne is represented in the form of a decoration item in Pokémon: Magikarp Jump, titled S.S. Anne Model.

Trivia

• The Japanese name of the S.S. Anne (St. Anne) is a reference to Pulseman, another game made by Game Freak. St. Anne is the name of the computer Pulseman is born from.
• The capsizing of the S.S. Anne during the ship's destruction is a reference to the film, The Poseidon Adventure.
